    my suspension does similar things, it sounds like a loose dust shield when i hit bumps.
    i had the spring compressor, but i didnt have the rubber isolators if thats what there called (rubber bushings on either side of the spring)
    but they werent there when i started.
    but then, i went from stock springs to eibach's
    would missing isolators cause a loose dustsheild sound?


    PS, yes i checked loose bolts on the knuckle, strut tower, and checked for loose dust shield too.
